Too bad I had hoped for a more "amateurish" solution - don't get me wrong still I nice project, wish I could do something like that too (my wife would kill me in an instant if I would lay hands on our cars eletronics)It's based on CAN. I'm going to be using a TinyDuino and an MCP2551 to glom on to the bus that comes out of the back of the radio. So basically the 'duino acts as a SERDES and minimal control interface when the Pandora is missing - I don't want the radio to think it hasn't got a CD changer just 'cos the Pandy is unplugged. There's a sample monitor circuit here: http://graham.auld.me.uk/projects/vanbus/van-pc.htmlI guess its a CAN bus ? I only have theoretical/software experience with CAN, how complicated is the electrical interface for the Pandora
